Why Miami is a "Gold Mine" for Solar in 2026
Most homeowners in Miami are passively paying $0.16 to FPL. They are losing money every month. The "Supercycle" strategy for FL residents is simple:
- Step 1: Stop renting your power. Own it.
- Step 2: Install a battery to capture the 1:1 Net Metering (Value: 100% Bill Offset).
- Step 3: Sell power back to the grid during peak heat waves when rates spike.
Insider Tip:
FPL rates have historically risen by 4-6% annually. By locking in your hardware cost today (minus the 30% Federal Tax Credit), you are essentially freezing your energy bill for 25 years.
Miami: The "Net Metering" Battlefield
Florida is one of the few remaining states with true 1:1 Net Metering. This means FPL is legally required to buy your excess solar power at the full retail rate. It is the ultimate "Wealth Loop."
However, utility lobbyists are fighting to kill this annually. By installing solar in 2026, you get "Grandfathered In" to the current favorable rates for 20 years, protecting your asset value before the laws change.
The Hurricane Factor
In Miami, a battery isn't just an investment; it's insurance. A localized solar+storage system keeps your AC and fridge running when the grid goes down during hurricane season, increasing your property value significantly compared to neighbors who go dark.
